I have a USR5416, and it does *not* work. Perhaps you could think of bundling ndiswrapper with DSL? Trying to get it to work was an absolute pain for me, not to mention a failure.

Hi ...
Yea, my Belkin PCMCIA 802.11b card is recognized by DSL ... Cool ... But I can't seem to set it up with wlcardconfig ... I mean the card is seen by wlcardconfig. Any ideas ? I "route add default gw 192.168.0.1" to bring it up. Dillo trys to connect to a website but no luck. I did "cardctl status" and my card is "READY" ... Now I noticed that with a NETGEAR card in Feather Linux the NETGEAR card works with no problem. In DSL the NETGEAR card is even recognized. :cool:

SMC2632Wv2 does NOT recognize by default
SMC provides fvnetr_cs atmel binaries for
a) Support RedHat 7.1, Redhat 7.2, Redhat 7.3
b) linux-kernel 2.4.17, 2.4.18

Do I need to recompile for 2.4.22? Can I use Knoppix for that ... which version?

I can patch the /etc/pcmcia/config and add to my restore list but the whole lib dir is linked to the cd. How do I add my driver,
assuming I can get it to work? Do I need to remaster? Or should I do a hard drive install? Or should I buy an 8180 card?

Rockrol913,

See this earlier post...

Look at the end of my posts...
I had some success bypassing the wlancardconfig

Did you try these commands ?
What is the output ? errors?
